Very interesting topic. This is the classic books vs. Movies question. Strangely enough, I'm always going to go with the books over other media because of the unlimited potential of human imagination. It's also why Interactive Fiction/Text Adventures and Roguelikes continue to have their own "cult" followings. Having said all that though, I really do prefer the actual 3D player animations of OOTP Baseball 19. YMMV, but sports games are one genre where I actually do want to see how the action plays out exactly vs. me having to visualize it in my own way. Maybe it's because I just want the exact precision and knowing exactly what the positioning was for a certain play for example (in say, football).
